Quick Start

Eaton Network Card-MS is a powerful networking device that seamlessly integrates with your ATS to provide remote monitoring, control, and configuration capabilities over an Ethernet network. With its SNMP and HTTP abilities, you can effortlessly manage your ATS from anywhere using a web browser or integrate it into your existing SNMP-based NMS, such as HP OpenView, IBM Tivoli Netview, or Computer Associates Unicenter. Additionally, it facilitates communication with IPM (Intelligent Power Manager) and allows for email notifications and comprehensive environment sensor monitoring.

3. INSTALLATION
• Use the provided MAC address label to identify the card.
• Connect the ETHERNET cable.
• Check the ETHERNET port indications.
• Wait until the Data LED flashes regularly (approx. three minutes), indicating that card start-up has terminated correctly.
Note: You can set the parameters via Service port even if the network is not connected. At connection, the card will restart keeping the settings.
4. IP SETTINGS
Once the card has started, proceed as indicated below:
• Connect the serial cable to card’s service port and PC’s COM port (shipped with the card)
• Use a terminal emulator such as PuTTY with these settings:
"Echo typed characters locally" option: disabled
• Type admin.
The main configuration menu is displayed:
Your network is equipped with a BOOTP/DHCP server (default)
The card is configured by default with this service enabled. No manual configuration is required. The IP parameters are
automatically collected by the card.
From the main configuration menu: (see above)
• Press the 2 key (Network configuration).
• Press the 1 key (Read Network settings).
The settings supplied by the server are displayed:
• Note the IP address.
• Press the 0 key (Exit).
Press the 0 key (Exit).

1. INTRODUCTION
The Network Card-MS card has SNMP and HTTP capabilities as well as monitoring through a Web browser interface . It connects to Ethernet
network. In addition, an Environmental Monitoring Probe can be attached to obtain humidity, temperature, smoke alarm, and security information.
With the card, the ATS has its own IP address and uses the local computer capabilities to:
• Supply web pages (http or https (SSL)) with information on status conditions and measurements/settings/alarms,
• Integrate an SNMP-based NMS such as hp OpenView, IBM Tivoli Netview and Computer Associates Unicenter.
• Communicate with IPM (Intelligent Power Manager).
• Send e-mail
• Monitor the Environment Sensor (EMP).
This manual provides all the information required to configure the Network Card-MS.
For more information on the supervision, control and configuration functions offered by the Network Management Card, see the user manual available
at http://powerquality.eaton.com.

6. SENSOR CONNECTION (option)
The Environment sensor is a Network Card-MS option.
For more information, see the user manual of the Network Card-MS.
The sensor remotely monitors the ATS environment by periodically measuring the
temperature and humidity, and checking the states of two external contacts. It can also
send alarms (e-mail, SNMP trap) tripped by pre-set thresholds. Connection is made via
the Service port (Settings/Sensor) on the Network Card-MS. The sensor is detected
automatically. Configuration and supervision use a menu that may be accessed directly
from the home page.
